Chapter 4: Second Thoughts
Carol was a bit surprised at Namor's forwardness,
"You want to marry me?"
The prince of Atlantis nodded,
"Yes, and bear my children. Our future generations would bring Atlantis into a new Golden Age."
The blonde Air Force brat blinked a couple of times before she shook her head,
"To be truthful, your highness, I'm flattered you like me so much, but, I have eyes for one man right now."
As she turned away, Miss Marvel felt her arm get tugged. Namor had a dark expression on his face and he glared at her,
"You will come back with me to be my bride. I will not be denied what is mine."
Inside…
Farrah and Leon had stopped kissing and the cat-girl was resting her head on the red-eyed teen's chest. Persiana sighed happily,
"Wonderful."
She looked up,
"You really are a good kisser, Leon. I'm glad you only belong to me."
Just then, her ears twitched. Leon looked at her,
"What's wrong?"
Farrah sat up,
"I heard something."
Something came through the wall suddenly, sailing over the two teens. Namor was thrown into a wall.
Pulsar's voice roared,
"RHODY, I SWEAR, IF YOU'RE AFTER THAT FLY AGAIN-!"
Real name Monica Rambeau, the light-powered heroine came flying in and looked at the mess,
"What happened?"
Namor stumbled to his feet and cracked his knuckles,
"The prince of Atlantis will not so easily be swayed."
Crisis and Persiana braced for a fight as Miss Marvel came in,
"Forget it! I'm not marrying you and I'm not having your kids!"
At this, the white-furred feline blinked,
"Wait, what? What happened?"
She looked at Namor,
"You want to marry her?"
Even Leon was a bit surprised,
"Seriously?"
Namor nodded,
"Yes, and she will be coming back to Atlantis with me."
Farrah grinned,
"Well, that'd be one less rival for me to deal with. By all means, take her!"
Leon looked at his girlfriend,
"Farrah!"
Persiana shrugged,
"What? What'd I say?"
Pulsar shook her head,
"No, we can't just let Namor take one of our teammates."
Farrah whined,
"But, she's so annoying! She's constantly after my man!"
Carol shot back,
"You don't deserve him, hairball! He's better off with me!"
Namor looked at Crisis,
"You are the man Carol is seeing?"
Carol smiled while Farrah was irate. Leon shook his head,
"It's not like that. I'm dating Farrah."
Namor nodded in understanding,
"So, you have no claim to Miss Marvel then, don't you?"
Leon shook his head,
"If by that, you mean I'm dating her, then, no, I'm not. But, she's still a teammate of mine and I'm not letting you take her."
The prince of Atlantis shook his head,
"If you have no claim to Miss Marvel, surface dweller, then you should get out of my way. I will claim Miss Marvel and we will return to Atlantis."
Pulsar said,
"We can't let you do that, Namor."
Namor scowled and roared,
"YOU SHALL REGRET THIS TRANSGRESSION, SURFACE DWELLERS!"
He speared Crisis out of the room, Miss Marvel and Persiana both following. Pulsar radioed in,
"All West Coast Avengers, you're needed at the compound. We're under attack!"
She shook her head,
"I hope they get here soon."
Outside…
Crisis was tossed to the ground hard, landing near the beach. Farrah went to his aid, while Carol slammed a massive uppercut into Namor's chin,
"Leave him alone!"
Namor took the hit, but landed in the water. Seconds later, he shot out of the water and grabbed Miss Marvel,
"You are strong, but, you forget, I heal in water rather nicely."
He restrained her as best he could, and Carol tried to fight it, but the two of them were getting closer and closer to the water. The blonde read up on Namor and he was nearly invincible in the water. She screamed,
"Help!"
Just as they were about to dip below the surface, Pulsar shot an energy beam at Namor, separating the two of them. Namor then plunged into the water, leaving Carol to wash up on the beach. She clutched her arm as she had been restrained strongly by the prince of Atlantis.
However, as Namor watched what was going on from a nearby cove, he glared daggers at the West Coast Avengers. This was far from over…
